Shells Seafood

Rachel Bishop

Amazing food and casual atmosphere. Can choose from nice air conditioned inside or outside by the bar. Reasonable prices and great selection. My husband got the jambalaya and I got the baby lobster pasta. Both were awesome. Be sure to try the clam chowder— some of the best I’ve ever had.

Shells is a great example of high quality, fresh seafood done in a casual setting. There's a dining room and a bar side, with some outdoor seating as well. It looks unassuming from the outside. Our group stopped in for dinner after spending some time at the beach that afternoon. We did not feel out of place in our beach clothes. I ordered the fried trio (shrimp, scallops, and whitefish) -- it came with fries and mandarin slaw. We also ordered a dozen raw oysters. The oysters really hit the spot -- fresh and delicious with a side of horseradish, cocktail sauce, lemon and crackers. I tried some crab cakes and they were packed with flavor and crab meat. The cost versus the portion size is excellent. We were surprised by how much food we were given. Shells is a very casual business running a simple menu that seems to be a local gathering spot.

We were seated promptly at prime time for dinner, party of four. No wait. Our server was over quickly and got drink and appetizer orders. All the menu items sounded great. We ordered and did not have to wait long for some delicious food. Our server checked on us frequently; we had no problems at this visit.

Looking for seafood on St Pete Beach and stumbled on Shells. We were happily surprised this place wasn't to busy and the food was amazing and reasonably priced. The sauces are made daily in house and they offer a Daily Catch menu. Pictured is the Big Easy dinner which was so good, and U Peel Shrimp! We can't wait to come back.
